ActionScript 3.0 :: Access Symbol Inside Movie Clip?
Nov 18, 2009
Basically I have an movie clips which contains various other movie clips. These other clips are named clip1_mc etc.This big movie clip is dropped onto a frame in the main timeline so it plays when the program loads. I have my main actions on the timeline and I want to access the movie clip instance names inside the big clip. Is there a call to maybe get the children or contents of a clips using an event listener?

I'm loading an external image into an empty actionscript movie clip (holder1) using MovieClipLoader(); on frame one of my movie and is invisible. Then when the movie plays, there is an empty movie clip symbol (image1_mc) that is placed manually on the stage within another movie clip symbol (flash_mc), and is also on a bottom layer of a mask layer which is animated. Is it possible to place "holder1" inside of "image1_mc" so that I can treat it as if it were an embedded image? In other words, have the image in "holder1" inside of the manually placed movie clip symbol "image1_mc" so that I can use it like a regular symbol on the stage?

I have a button (myButton_btn) which is nested inside a few movie clips. How do I access it from the main time line? Does this look like a proper code:
firstLevel_mc.secondLevel_mc.thirdLevel_mc.myButton_btn.addEventListen er(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick_goHome);
function onClick_goHome(event:MouseEvent): void {
this.gotoAndPlay("homesequence");
}

I'm using Flash CS3 with Actionscript 2.0.I have a Button. This include on "UP" frame a Movie Clip with a Dynamic Text in.
The Button have Instance Name = boton
The Movie Clip have Instance Name = pelicula
Dynamic Text have a variable called = texto
So, I use this code in the main scene:
Code:
boton.pelicula.texto = "new text"; but don't works, I think is something with the Frame "UP".

I've created an animated scene in Flash, with a bar chart.The bar is a MovieClip symbol containing a large rectangle and a TextField.I'd like to access the TextField using actionscript, but I can't seem to reference it.
Each bar in the scene has its own instance name, so that's easy to find.
But how do I modify the text in the textfield within the symbols?

I am importing a movie clip as a symbol from a SWF using Embed to a AS3 program and, after attaching the movie clip to the stage, the movie clip keeps repeating. Before you ask I have indeed creating a script layer and put a "stop()" on the last frame. In fact the swf containing the symbol works perfectly fine when executed on its own or in Flashdevelop (my choosen IDE). Its only when imported does the clip keep repeating.Here is the code:
Code:
package {
import flash.display.*;

I have a very simple problem but I can't find the very simple solution to it. I've create an animated menu with animated movie clips inside to work as buttons. All the main buttons work perfectely but I've got just on button with a sub-menu. On this sub-menu I've placed an invisible hitarea button in order to place some gotoAndStop action. The thing is, it seems to me like this submenu hitarea are underneath something else (even though is the seccond layers right about the actions layers). I've placed a simple trace action whenever the mouse rolls over this area but I get nothing... Am I doing something really wrong? I'm losing all my hair already.

The question is, How do you apply a function to a movie clip inside a movie clip inside a movie clip. So there are three mc and I need to apply the function to the inner most one.
Here is what I have. The 'a' is in 'spin_4' wich needs to be in 'portal'.
ActionScript Code:
for(var i = 1; i<=12; i++){
this.spin_4['a_'+i].onEnterFrame = function(){
if(this.hitTest(_level0.man)){

In AS3 you can add script to a movie clip symbol. But in AS3 you cannot, correct?
So what do you do in AS3? What is the "correct" way of coding, lets say, characters or objects in a game? Or more specifically, where is the correct place to put the code for each character or item?

I made a very nice movie clip that now resides in the library of my current working fla. I have an external class controlling it and all is fine.
However, I want to use this movie clip in another fla file as well. The method i have used now is to have both projects open, then manually copy the movie clip from one to the other.
Like exporting a movie clip to an "external file-database of movie clips" for importing it in other projects?
